Lugnuts

Quick Question...
I just bought aspec wheels and was wondering if I need acorn nuts or round nuts.

Recommendations are welcomed.

He also said he used the "regular nuts" that he used on his stockies. Just to keep it straight, its ball seat for honda products....tapered seat for most everything else. Acorn refers to the style of the hex end.

As I believe, all OEM Acura wheels use the ball seat. The tuner lugs are usually a tapered seat and are used for after market rims and such. I think that you can get away with using the tapered seat but it is highly likely that problems will arise if you do so. With that said, just use the ball seat lugs and be safer
